Campus Life & Housing
Living in community can be as rewarding as learning in community. Students nurture friendships as they spend time together in study and fellowship. Conversations about faith that begin in the classroom often continue in the hallways and living rooms of seminary housing.
Garrett-Evangelical's housing options range from small dormitory rooms for individuals who spend one or two nights a week on campus to large apartments for families who live here year-round, or for two students to share.
All residence halls and apartment buildings are owned by the seminary, so housing costs are lower than most rental properties in Evanston.
Beginning in June of 2009, the residence halls on the Garrett campus will be closed for some as-yet-to-be-determined period of time for renovation. The seminary is currently negotiating for dormitory type space close by that will provide interim dormitory housing. Those negotiations should be completed by May of 2009.
Apartments are less than a ten minute walk from both the seminary and downtown Evanston and are near neighborhood businesses on Noyes Street.
Types of Housing Available
Apartments: One furnished and two unfurnished apartment buildings offering 137 rental units are available for rental on a monthly basis to seminary students, faculty and staff. These buildings are located within walking distance (3 blocks) of the seminary. Learn More
